Be Still, Jill

Posted on March 8, 2018 | 25 Comments

I remember being told to be still, Jill when I was a child!  Oh, is that possible? Lol! 😉

Maybe if I was given a crayon and an assignment to draw!

I started a new online class this week with Lynn Whipple – hosted by Carla Sonheim, called, “The Essence of Still Life.”

Lynn brings such positive energy to her classes.  I know I will learn so much!

I hope you enjoyed these colorful drawings I did!

They were super fun with water soluble crayons!

Cheers! 🙂

    They are wonderful! When I think of still lifes I think of some really serious old paintings. You brought them to a fun and young and modern level, so cool! 😊💕

    Just do the opposite now, right Jill, keep moving!!! Your still life sketches are so interesting to view. I love all of the overlapping and line textures. I look forward to seeing more of your class artwork.

    These are lovely and so stylish! The vibrant backgrounds definitely caught my eyes as I love yellow and fuchsia!
